Mass dimension one fermionic fields are prime candidates to describe dark matter, due to their intrinsic neutral nature, as they are constructed as eigenstates of the charge conjugation operator with dual helicity. To formulate the meaning…
The dichotomy between fermions and bosons is at the root of many physical phenomena, from metallic conduction of electricity to super-fluidity, and from the periodic table to coherent propagation of light. The dichotomy originates from the…
The argument for an "Emergent Cosmographic Vacuum" state which generates fermion and weak boson masses is outlined. Its limitations and its consequences are discussed. Predictions for LHC are presented.
The main thesis of this paper deals with the interactions of a set of fermions which are described by one basic type of bilinear interactions,two symmetric semiobjects,three embedded shells and four fundamental (strong)…
Some new representations of the supersymmetric transformations are derived, and the supermultiplets are introduced. Based on these representations, various formulations (equations, commutation relations, propagators, Jacobi identities,…
Recent results on the dynamical stability of a system involving the interaction of the ELKO spinor field with standard matter in the universe have been reanalysed, and the conclusion is that such system does not exhibit isolated stable…
This article focuses on investigating all the possible choices of the phase factor present in the quite recent (unconventional) spin-half particles, looking towards fully defining the necessary criteria to classify them within an…
A new theory makes testable predictions: (1) Higgs fields have an unconventional equation of motion. (2) Fermions have a second-order coupling to gauge fields. (3) Fermion propagators are modified at high energy. (4) There are new scalar…
Some time ago it was suggested that dark matter may consist in part of an extremely dilute gas of supermassive gravitinos with fractional charge 2$e$/3 \cite{MeissnerNicolai2019}. This scheme makes the definite (and falsifiable) prediction…
Recently, the so-called Elko spinor field has been proposed to be a candidate of dark energy. It is a non-standard spinor and has unusual properties. When the Elko spinor field is used in cosmology, its unusual properties could bring some…
A field theory is proposed where the regular fermionic matter and the dark fermionic matter can be different states of the same "primordial" fermion fields. In regime of the fermion densities typical for normal particle physics, the…
I review in this chapter several classes of quantum phase transitions that occur in quasi-one dimensional systems. I start by examining the simple case of coupled spin chains and ladders, then move to the case of bosons, and finally deal…
Recent experimental observations are shown to be quantitatively consistent with an extended concept of space-time having a discrete extra dimension of two points at the distance of 11.8 fm together with a nontrivial metric structure. In…
An introduction to the physics of heavy fermion compounds is presented, attempting to highlight the conceptual developments and emphasize the mysteries and open questions that persist in this active field of research.
We introduce a novel class of bosonic dark matter candidates that we dub wallions, featuring boundaries in field space. The wallion mass is exponentially suppressed when the separation between boundaries far exceeds their intrinsic width…
In this thesis a simple extension of the Standard Model has been investigated. The Standard Model gauge group has been extended by an additional $U(1)_X$ group. The model introduces a new Higgs particle as well as three particles (a gauge…

Quantum fields are considered as generators of infinite-dimensional Clifford algebra $Cl(\infty)$, which can be either orthogonal (in case of fermions) or symplectic (in case of bosons). A generic quantum state can be expressed as a…
The document discusses a proposed extension to the Standard Model that aims to explain the presence of neutrino masses and the existence of dark matter. The model includes two potential candidates for dark matter, a vector WIMP and a…
In the absence of dark matter, the dynamical and kinematical interpretations of the special relativistic spacetime have been and still are the topic of philosophic debate, which whilst fertile, is by and large of little predictive power.…
